Lead Me to Calvary

 

Lead Me to Calvary

It’s important to know and retain the story of Jesus. His death, burial and resurrection is the crowning event of His life. It is the story of Mary weeping and the angels guarding His tomb. It is the story of the empty tomb and His releasing of the crown of thorns to be resurrected to Heaven. It is the story of forgiveness of our sins. And the preparations He is making in heaven for us to join Him there.

Lyrics by Jennie E. Hussy, arranged by William J. Kirkpatrick

“King of my life, I crown Thee now, Thine shall the glory be; Lest I forget Thy thorn-crowned brow, lead me to Calvary.

Show me the tomb where Thou was laid, tenderly mourned and wept; Angels the robes in light arrayed guarded Thee while Thou slept.

Let me like Mary, through the gloom, come with a gift to Thee; Show to me now the empty tomb, lead me to Calvary.

May I be willing, Lord, to bear daily my cross for Thee; Even Thy cup of grief to share, Thou has borne all for me.

Lest I forget Gethsemane; Lest I forget Thine agony; Lest I forget Thy love for me, lead me to Calvary.”
